The following conditions apply to both family reunification and family formation:

• the person with whom admission is requested must have sufficient means of subsistence in a sustainable and independent manner. 
• the person applying for admission must have sustainable suitable housing that is effectively available. If the applicant is living on the island, there should be no objection to the occupancy or lodging of the family members to be admitted.
• the foreigner who applies for admission may not pose a threat to public order. The same requirements are imposed on family members as with regard to the other applicants for residence permits.

The foreign national who is married to a Dutch citizen receives a permit for temporary residence, without a work ban. This means that his/her employer is exempt from applying for an employment permit and can participate in the labor market.
